Ratchet, [rach-et]
Noun.
A diva, mostly from urban cities and ghettos, that has reason to believe she is every mans eye candy. Unfortunately, she’s wrong.
Typical signs to beware of include, but are not limited to:
-owning a Blackberry
-BLARES anything by Drake, 2Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Cali Swag District, or any other garbage entertainment rapper
-rowdily quotes “lyrics” from aforementioned artists
-has a weave reminiscent of a bird’s nest after a tempest hit the tree it was in, and is dyed at least thrice.
-repeatedly use ludicrous terms such as “YOLO”, “swag”, “boost”, “beaking”, “doe”, “really”, “naw”, “actually”, “twerk”, “coaster”, “dagga”, etc., to make a valid statement when they speak
Thank you Urban Dictionary.
I went to the Rebecca Minkoff Denim Launch// Lookbook.nu Party last week with Laura and told her I was feeling a little ratchet in my outfit, she didn’t know what ‘ratchet’ was, so here you go babe… enjoy! Xx PS. How awesome are the changing room telephone booths? The Confederacy Boutique knows whats up.. the best part? They actually call a sales associate when you pick up the phone, so getting the right size is easy. *genius idea*
Oh, and the tote bag is perfect for shopping- save a tree and stay looking chic.
With love from Hollywood,

Thank you for finally explaining the term “ratchet” me! Looking beautiful as always.

Ratchet is a type of behavior….not a person. Anyone can be ratchet, men and women alike. A person can be considered ratchet if he/she behaves in a manner that shows that they care very little about what others think, i.e. random twerking in the streets, being extremely loud, wearing a certain outfit that is totally inappropriate to the occasion. A person is ratchet based on what they post on social networks, i.e. videos of them twerking or doing any other inappropriate actions. Cursing on social networks in ways that seem redundant, posting inappropriate statuses or pictures are all examples of being ratchet. However, the definition you so boldly posted with certainty on your blog is COMPLETELY WRONG!
Unfortunately urban dictionary is heavily used by people who are not familiar with the culture that terms are originated. Those who enter information, similar to wikipedia, may not be a reliable source. In turn having people misinterpret its meaning and use it incorrectly. Attributing the term ratchet to solely being a women is grossly incorrect.
Please share this information.
